Alright, the thread title called for this...
To level or not to level,
this IS a question.
Whether to suffer the drudgery and boredom of outrageous grinding,
Or to make short your content and by the players end it.
To die, to Lose.
No more, and by a raise to say
we end permadeath and all consequences
of play that is crap.
Tis of the masses devoutly wished.
To die, to raise.
To raise perchance to retain.
Aye there's the rub.
For in this state of invulnerability,
what tension may come
when death hath lost all its sting.
